Hagen

Germany

Hagen is for those who like quiet towns and industrial history, not for those seeking nightlife or big cities. Best time to visit is summer, when the weather is nice. Budget around 300-500 EUR. The city is small, so moving between areas takes little time. Must-see: Hagen Cathedral and Mining Museum. Skip the Hagen Zoo – it's small and not very interesting. Avoid eating at expensive restaurants in the city center; there are cheaper options nearby.
